[1]Lenin’sdraft was written in connection with the discussion by the
Politbureau at its meeting on December 5, 1921, of the S.E.C.’s complaint
against the decision of the C.L.D. withdrawing the flour-mills from the
jurisdiction of the S.E.C. and placing them in charge of the Commissariat
for Food. The Politbureau confirmed the decision of the C.L.D. and directed
the Narrow Council of People’s Commissars to pass a supplementary decision
as proposed by Lenin.
